Fairview LA BERYL BLANCCheninBlanc Paarl RSA
Description: The La Beryl Blanc from Fairview was produced from hand harvested CheninBlanc and Semillon. Charles Back added Semillon to the blend this year to add complexity to the CheninBlanc. The grapes were delicately laid out on beds of straw to desiccate. Eventually the bunches lost about 75% of their volume, intensifying the flavour and sweetness of the berries. The grapes were gently pressed and the juice fermented in French oak barrels. This sweet Chenin is rich yet balanced, and offers superb value for a sweet wine of this quality. Fairview is situated on the lower slopes of Mt. Paarl, the mountain that gives its name to this warm region, which is more sheltered from the moderating maritime influence than nearby Stellenbosch. Fairview has been planted with vines since 1699, when it was known by the name of Bloemkwoolfontein . Fortunately, its name was changed to Fairview by an English owner at the beginning of the 20th century. The property was bought by the grandfather of current owner, Charles Back, in 1937, and was subsequently run by his father, Cyril. Charles has run it for the past 25 years. ''I've spent most of that time in search of a style I'm happy with,'' says Fairview's driving force Charles Back. ''I'm happy that we're now getting plush fruit but with good grip, so better balanced wines.'' (12 x 50 cl) Price: £123.90
